Trawling the news today I discovered an interesting story detailing how video games can now be played without a games console. OnLive, a video game service hosted via the cloud, are to bring one hundred and fifty games to the UK when it launches the service – but what will this mean for us?

It seems that technology has proven itself to be useful once again as gamers succeed where scientists failed, solving in just a matter of weeks, a problem that troubled scientists for more than a decade.
The gamers were called in after scientists were unable to determine the
structure of a retrovirus enzyme. The enzyme belongs to a class known as
retroviral proteases and has a vital role in the development and
maturing of the AIDS virus.
When Scientists automated methods
failed to generate a result, Dr. Firas Khatib, a researcher at the
University of Washington's Department of Biology, explained that they
decided "to see if human intuition could succeed".

As you likely have heard, what with it being all over the news, the Microsoft's new Kinect motion controller was released earlier this week. However, before you go rushing out to buy one, you probably want to ensure that it's worth the investment. £130 is a rather large investment for an accessory for your gaming console, after all. I mean, with that much money, you could purchase a
new clothes dryer from Asda. So, with options like those on the table, how do you choose where to spend your money? That's where Savoo comes in.

Shopping Advice
As Savoo's resident tech blogger, I spent much of the morning trying to decide whether I wanted to discuss the Queen recently
joining Facebook, or last night's launch of Call of Duty Black Ops. I ultimately decided to go with Call of Duty for several reasons.
1. Her Majesty won't be my friend.
2. She won't let me poke her.
That said, the launch of Call of Duty has some rather large expectations to live up to. Its predecessor, Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 is the all-time record holder for the most successful entertainment launch, earning over £242.4m in its first day of sales and outpacing everything from films to books to music albums.

ideas as to what bloggers and small business owners might like for
Christmas. Or maybe it is just me…..

Money Saving Tips
Just a warning, this is a bit of a gushing review because I absolutely love this product and I have no idea how I have lived without it for so long!
I was recently sent the LiveScribe Echo Smart Pen to try out. The premise being that I can use it at university to write my notes during lectures and it will also record what the lecturer is saying. That way I will not miss anything whilst I am writing. And I will also be able to listen to the lectures when I get home to recap. I can also upload the notes I wrote to my laptop, which is brilliant. I then have all my notes stored in one place, along with a recording of each lecture. Obviously I am not yet back at university, only two weeks left of summer holidays, so I have not had the chance to try it out in a lecture. However, I went to an event held by Savoo in London, so I thought it was the perfect opportunity to try the pen out...
